Kaap Willemsduin, Wooden beacon on Schiermonnikoog, Netherlands.
The square wooden structure of Kaap Willemsduin stands at the easternmost section of Schiermonnikoog island, functioning as a reference point for maritime navigation.
The original beacon from 1931 was replaced in 1967 with a new construction supported by wooden poles instead of steel cables.
Maritime navigation in the Wadden Sea region relies on beacons like Kaap Willemsduin to guide vessels through the complex coastal waters.
Visitors reach the beacon through Bouwe Hoekstrapad from Kaap Kobbeduinen or via a side path from the Waterstaatpad along the Stuifdijk.
The beacon underwent renovation in July 2018, preserving its role as a geodetic coordinate reference point within the National Park Schiermonnikoog.
